Leans Progressive
Primary
The film explores the complex political backdrop of the Cold War and Space Race, including government manipulation and societal anxieties, but is noted by critics for lacking a strong point of view, thus balancing potentially left-leaning critiques with the nationalistic context of the era.
The film incorporates diverse social perspectives and acknowledges historical contexts like the civil rights movements, contributing to a sense of visible diversity. However, it does not feature explicit DEI-driven casting or a central narrative that overtly critiques traditional identities.
Secondary
Fly Me to the Moon features Lance, an openly gay character depicted with dignity and humor. Despite limited screen time, his presence is noted as a positive step toward inclusivity, addressing historical erasure in space narratives. The portrayal contributes positively, especially given the current landscape of LGBTQ+ representation in major studio films.
Fly Me to the Moon does not feature transsexual characters or themes. The movie's plot focuses on a romantic comedy set against a NASA mission, with no indication of trans representation. Therefore, the film's net impact on the portrayal of transsexual characters is N/A due to their absence.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film introduces new, original female characters in significant professional roles, such as Kelly Jones, within a historically male-dominated context. However, the provided information explicitly states there is no indication of gender-swapping of established historical male figures.
